Backstory Podcast #39 The Catalyst Effect Backstory Podcast

    • Nieuws

The SARS-COV-2 pandemic ravages the world with 6,804,044 cases- 1,909,077 in the US with 18,000 cases in Alabama and 300 in Baldwin County. This crisis has taken a backseat to the current protests and outrage at the death of George Floyd at the hands of Law Enforcement. This 8:46 Murder- caught on video- was the spark that ignited outrage across the USA from the Black Lives Matter movement and by non-traditinal protesters on this issue (white people). It’s complicated but if you aren't outraged that a fellow citizen was choked to death with his hands cuffed behind his back, please go elsewhere. The militarization of the police forces in this country is one issue, where we believe, a bad policy decision led us to where we are today. We also advocate for reform of the position of Sheriff in Alabama following the Maryland Model whereby the Sheriff is relegated to a glorified jailer (immunity in tact for good reason) with the County hiring a professional police force (THAT DOES NOT HAVE IMMUNITY). After filing an Ethics Complaint against the Sheriff Huey Mack (CEO of Mack Funeral Home), Harry’s courthouse security pass was reinstated. The removal of Admiral Semmes statue in Mobile discussed as well as the man’s legacy to Naval Warfare (video at the end of podcast). Raines nurses a hangover as he tells us about the protests he has been to in Houston. The Co-option of:1) the term and Flag of the Revolutionary War “dont tread on me” by the Tea Party, 2) the Confederate battle flag by white supremacists, and 3) the Good Ole Boy System by Catalyst here in Baldwin County. We mourn the death of Moody Police Sgt. Stephen Williams who died in the line of duty this week (Harry’s co-worker at the City of Alabaster). The Auburn Family mourns the loss of Coach Pat Dye, a good man and role model that should all aspire to emulate. Paul’s trip to the Fairhope City Council meeting (for an explanation of the total goat-f*&! That is the McSharry assault prosecution) goes viral. Tropical Storm Cristobol is heading to NOLA but we are on the “bad side” of the tropical rotation, plan for 5 days of constant rain and wind. Former Secretary of Defense and Marine General James Norman Maddis (Mad-Dog) expressed his outrage at President Trump’s leadership during this time of crisis. Go check it out in The Atlantic. Using tear gas on peaceful protesters for a photo op…..Former US Attorney General Jefferson Beauregard Sessions was in town this week stumping for his old Senate seat and had his picture-took with DA Robert Wilters, Bay Minette Police Chief Al Tolbert and PD Mayor Robert Wills (talk about the wrong stuff, photo enclosed). The Backstory Turkey Take-out is none other than former Baldwin County Commissioner and “Strawman” Tucker Dorsey. There is a new lawsuit against his handlers Bass and Delaney related to the Bellaton Development on 181 in Daphne, allegations of fraud and all the other crap you’d expect. Movie suggestions, personal stories, indian pottery, Beretta shotguns, and much, much more.
